What class?
I've found a few and remember a few from the top of my head. The ones I found have been offered in the past couple of years so I don't know if they're offered every year.
Most of the ones listed below are third party scholarships
If you have a AA and PAT of 20 or more each i think you get $6000
Summer Research Project (ideal between 1st and 2nd year) $3000
Scholarship for Illinois Residents (based on academic performance)
Scholarship for New Jersey Residents (need based)
Scholarship for LDS students (after first year)
Scholarship for Turkish-American Doctors (tadam.org)
Horace Wells Club Trust Fund for residents of Connecticut, need-based, demonstrate commitment to the underserved
Scholarship for Monroe County, NY residents (2nd-4th year)
Tiberi Scholarship for Italian descent students (2nd year, need-based)
Albertian and Sevoyan Endowed Scholarships for Armenian descent students (academic and need-based, x2 scholarships)
Dr. Charles G. Chigas Scholarship for students of Hellinistic heritage (need-based, lesser extent merit-based)
I also think they have incentives for people who do well in first year (top 10%?, though not sure about this.)
Of course there are military and NHSC scholarships
Good luck
Thank you for your reply!
Someone in the Pre-dent forums mentioned about Tufts giving out a $8000 scholarship. Do you have any information about that?
So the top 10% of the class each year gets some money as well?

That $8000 most likely has to do with being in the top 10% of your class.

I've never heard of an $8000 merit scholarship.
If you get the Merit Scholarship coming into Tufts (I believe it is 21 AA and 3.5 GPA), it is at most $6000 per year. If you receive it for the first year and then lose it by falling out of the top 20% of the class, you lose the scholarship. If you get back into the top 20% of the class the year after, you can earn it again, but the amount will be $4000. Also, if you didn't get the scholarship coming into Tufts, you can earn it by being in the top 20% of the class, and this amount would be $4000 per year.
There is a scholarship for Under Represented Minorities that is not merit-based (you cannot lose it) and it is for 15% of tuition costs, amounting to about $10,000 per year. This is not a scholarship you apply for. There are not a lot of URMs at Tufts for some reason, though the administration is trying to encourage URMs to come here with such scholarships.
